Borysenko, I., and O. Bululukov. "FEATURES OF TACTICAL DECISION-MAKING DURING THE INVESTIGATION OF SPECIFIC TYPES OF MURDERS." Theory and Practice of Forensic Science and Criminalistics 20, no. 2 (December 4, 2019): 45–61. http://dx.doi.org/10.32353/khrife.2.2019.03.
Full textAbstract:
The main provisions of the methods for investigating murders related to the dismemberment of a corpse and the methods for investigating murders without a corpse in the context of tactical decision-making in order to disclose and investigate these crimes are considered.
The purpose of the article is to determine the features of tactical decision-making in the investigation of pointed murders. While considering the main provisions of the subject of the article, analysis and synthesis methods are used.
The main attention is paid to the peculiarities of tactical decision-making at the initial stage of the investigation of these murders. It is indicated that the tactical decision-making is due to factors related to the initial situation of the investigation which require the investigator to take an individual approach to using the available information about the crime. These factors are: 1) the presence of close ties between the victim and the offender; 2) the existence of an application for the disappearance of the victim; 3) a typical explanation for the disappearance of a person; 4) lack of data regarding the place of the murder; 5) lack of data regarding traces of the murder; 6) lack of data regarding the motive for the murder; 7) the absence of a corpse (parts of the corpse) at the initial stage of the investigation.
In the methods of investigating murders related to the dismemberment of a corpse, the features of tactical decision-making are influenced by the investigative situation that developed at the initial stage of the investigation. The article discusses four typical investigative situations. Attention is focused on the peculiarities of the tactical decision-making when planning an investigation, in particular, on the suggesting of investigative versions and their checking. Typical versions of the crime event put forward during the investigation of the murder are called.
In the methods of investigating murders without a corpse, the features of the tactical decision-making are manifested when conducting separate investigative (search) actions. The absence of a corpse at the initial stage of the investigation leads to significant mental activity, which is aimed at finding traces of the murder, the whereabouts of the corpse and identifying the suspect. Features of the tactical decision-making are shown in such investigative (search) actions as interrogation of persons close to the victim, inspection and search of the place of residence of the victim and his relatives. The negative circumstances that occur in the investigation and can be used in making tactical decisions to expose the suspect are named.

The increased public awareness of the impact of fraudulent activities has put pressure on corporations to practise better corporate behaviour. As a result, their stakeholders demanded that corporations increase the level of transparency that pertains to their corporate behaviour and provide them with sustainable assurance. One of the ways that they can improve the way they conduct business is by ensuring that their investigative audits are of a high quality. In this study, we investigate the factors that influence the quality of investigative audits. In particular, two factors are chosen, namely, auditor competency and digital forensic support. Using a questionnaire survey as the research instrument, the questionnaires were distributed to 150 investigative auditors who worked for the Indonesian Audit Investigative Board (BPK). This study shows that both factors significantly and positively influence investigative audit quality. The findings of this study can help related parties to better understanding the factors that contribute to investigative auditing and, as a consequence, suggest ways to improve the investigative audit quality. For BPK, which has the authority to conduct audits of the management and accountability of state finances, the findings serve as a fundamental insight into sustaining work integrity and professionalism.

The purpose of the study is to determine the features of constructing schemes for analyzing an investigative situation using the forensic thinking of an investigator. Forensic thinking has a direct impact on the mental activity of the investigator in the process of disclosing and investigating crimes. Today, the pre-trial investigation process depends on the analytical thinking of the investigator and his skill in making well-considered tactical decisions. The investigator must conduct a meaningful study and critical analysis of the investigative situation to achieve the effectiveness of the investigation. The attention is focused on the essence and significance of the analysis of the investigative situation for the formation of forensic versions and the adoption of balanced tactical decisions in the course of planning and organizing a pre-trial investigation. Based on the processes of cognition of reality, algorithms for analyzing the investigative situation were determined. An attempt is made to generalize and substantiate the existing schemes for analyzing the investigative situation, including using the theory of inventive problem solving. The dynamism of the investigative situation necessitated a creative approach to the analysis. For this reason, it is proposed to use the theory of inventive problem solving. The TRIZ method is aimed at obtaining an ideal result that does not contain negative factors. The TRIZ divides the problem into parts to identify the contradiction that blocks the investigation. Such a contradiction lends itself to detailed study or is discarded to improve the options for solving problems in which there are no negative elements. Thus, knowledge of the algorithm for analyzing the investigative situation allows you to optimize the entire process of disclosing and investigating crimes. Today, approaches in this direction are very useful, but have a general character and require specification that will increase the effectiveness of their application.

A nationwide content analysis of television stations showed low levels of investigative journalism quality and quantity. Most stories introduced as “investigative” were not investigative by definition. However, in an accompanying survey, about half of respondents said investigative quality and quantity had recently increased at their stations. Utilizing Shoemaker and Reese’s hierarchical model, organizational and social-institutional variables were used to predict investigative production. Stations in competitive markets and stations owned by publicly traded corporations produced more investigative journalism and were more likely to emphasize investigations. Stations emphasizing profit were less likely to emphasize investigative reporting.

The genre of investigative journalism is a kind of indicator that measures the state of free speech in society. Today, investigative journalism is compared with the highest professional skill. Investigation offers an author’s version of events based on search results, questions, facts. The investigator looks for a theme, collects facts to accuse, but not so much as for the accusation of a particular person, as in the hope to solve a particular social problem. However, the problem of ideological-thematic exegetics of investigating activity in the context of proximity concept is yet little studied. The article aims to investigate the ideological-thematic basis of regional journalistic investigation via a prism of the proximity concept, outlining elements, structure, and factors of efficiency of investigative texts. Contextual analysis, elements of component analysis, methods of intertextual comparison, and conceptual analysis, linguistic modeling contributed to distinguishing and systemic characterizing of the informational dossier tools. In the paper, the exegetics (hermeneutics) of investigation texts in the context of the proximity concept is presented, and the main algorithms for avoiding the inefficiency of this concept in the journalistic investigation are defined. Besides, the main thematic areas of the investigative activities of the Southern Ukraine regional media are analyzed. The findings of the research using our methods of the experimental and practical social triad by applying the themes and ideas of stirring up the journalistic investigations’ readers were used in the paper. The main principle in the activity of a journalist working on the definition of the thematic, problematic, ideological conceptualization of the region, state, and the abroad, is publicity, creating of the appropriate atmosphere, public opinion concerning certain social phenomena. The main thing to focus on is the competence in the subject matter or problem that has become the matter of interest in the investigation. The regional journalistic investigation, unlike other space-and-time research themes, is specific to increase the number of readers, build and effectively represent the modeled reality. Keywords: idea and theme exegetics, investigative text, proximity, experimental and practical social triad, readers’ stirring up.

Full textAbstract:
State financial losses are an important issue to study. Corruption in Indonesia is a major problem so far it has never been resolved, starting from the central government to the regions. This has had a bad effect on the Indonesian economy. In practice, the Investigating Prosecutor at the Denpasar District Attorney often conducts investigations in the framework of calculating state financial losses. This study aims to determine the legality of the results of investigative audits issued by the Financial Supervisory Agency as evidence in proving state financial losses in corruption cases and to determine the factors that influence the Investigative Prosecutor to more frequently ask Financial Supervisory Agency for assistance to conduct investigative audits. The research method used is empirical legal research with a qualitative approach and a descriptive approach. The data sources are primary data obtained directly from the Denpasar District Attorney with interview techniques and secondary data from legal theories. The results show that the results of the investigative audit conducted by the Financial Supervisory Agency can be used as evidence at trial because their validity meets the elements contained in Article 184 of the Criminal Procedure Code and the tendency of the Investigative Prosecutor at the Denpasar District Attorney to conduct an investigative audit of the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency efficiency and effectiveness policy factors as well as human resource factors.

Full textAbstract:
The factors influencing the state policy in the field of operational-search activity have been studied. The author has noted that the reforms taking place in the law enforcement area have laid a new approach to combating crime, as the traditional perception of crime and combating it is changing. Combating crime requires, first of all, modern, perfect regulatory support. And first of all it concerns the sphere of operative-search activity as a priority direction of counteraction to crime. In this regard, the priority area of research is public policy, which takes place in the field of op-erational and investigative activities. Therefore, the purpose of the article is to identify the factors that influence the state policy in the field of operational and investigative activities and highlight the directions of formation of this policy. It is emphasized that this list is not exhaustive and can be supplemented, which, in turn, further determines the need for further in-depth scientific research in this area. Factors influencing the state policy in the field of operational and investigative activities should be taken into account when forming a single Concept of legal policy, which would reflect a holistic system of leading official views on its essence and content, would determine the priorities for further development. The development of the Concept of the state policy in the field of operative-investigative activity will make it possible to ensure the adoption of a system of laws that provide a complex, logically consistent legal regulation of certain phenomena of public life.

Full textAbstract:
This study assesses the practice of investigative reporting within development journalism in Amhara radio. The study used quantitative and qualitative content analysis. Data was mainly collected through document analysis and semi-structured interviews. 1326 pieces of news were selected for content analysis by using multi-stage sampling, and 13 reporters, editors, and media managers were selected for interviews by using multi-stage sampling and purposive sampling. The finding shows that Amhara radio tries to reconcile investigative reporting within development journalism by maximizing the number of news stories that engage in investigative reporting. As per the findings, 28.4% of the news stories were devoted to investigating and criticizing the wrongdoings of the government; this is by far higher than the previous four years’ average of 1.9%. However, the media didn’t touch on the fundamental structural problems of the government in its investigative reporting, and there was also a lack of in-depth investigation into issues. The main factors that trigger the medium to engage in investigative reporting are media managers’ and regional government’s commitment, social media pressure, and the public protest movement against the government. Generally, with different challenges, Amhara Radio is striving to change history and become a model for other state-owned media in the country.

ABSTRACTAn in-depth understanding of human factors and human error is lacking in current research on seniors' falls. Additional knowledge is needed to understand why seniors are falling. The purpose of this article is to describe the adapting of the Integrated Safety Investigation Methodology (ISIM) (used for investigating transportation and industrial accidents) to studying seniors' falls. An adapted version—the Seniors Falls Investigative Methodology (SFIM)—uses a systems approach to take an investigation beyond the immediate cause of an incident and reveal unsafe acts and deeply imbedded unsafe conditions that contribute to adverse outcomes. An example case study is used to describe six phases of the investigative process in detail. The SFIM has the potential to identify safety deficiencies; utilize existing knowledge about falls; establish a standardized reporting system; shift focus from the faller to the system; and guide targeted prevention.

The relevance of the article is that timely and consistent, conducting the necessary investigative actions and operational and investigative measures in the detection of crimes, depends largely on the correctness of the assessment of investigative and operational and investigative situations at the time of the offense. It is emphasized that among the objective factors influencing the formation of a specific situation in the investigation of crimes related to offenses involving persons with increased criminal influence are: the presence and nature of the investigator's evidence; availability at a certain moment at the disposal of the investigator and operational worker of the necessary information, availability of necessary forces and means, possibility of their use in the shortest possible time, etc. Among the subjective factors may include: the psychological state of the investigator and operative, the level of their knowledge, practical experience, their ability to quickly make and implement decisions in unfavorable conditions for him, etc. The analysis of scientific and practical research on the topic of offenses related to offenses involving persons is considered to be insufficiently developed. Professors Bakhin VP, Konovalova VE, Shepitko VY and some other authors have raised the issue of offenses involving offenses involving individuals in the broadest sense. However, the problems of putting forward investigative and operational-investigative situations in their relationship in the forensic and operational-investigative literature problems are extremely insufficiently studied. The aim of the article was to start the scientific development of the interaction between the investigative and operative-search divisions of Interpol and Europol. The first conclusions on this issue motivate us to further develop a private methodology for the detection of offenses related to offenses involving individuals.

The objective of this research is to examine the relationship between Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional (RIASEC), and Shapero’s Entrepreneurial Event Theory (SEET) on the youth’s intention to be involved in agropreneurship. The data were collected by the self-reported in-person and electronic questionnaires from 269 youth in Sabah, Malaysia. The results revealed that realistic, investigative, enterprising and SEET plays a significant role in agropreneurship intention. Research on agropreneurship is still lacking, and to date, only a few studies have been published. The findings of this study enrich the existing literature, especially in Malaysia’s context. At the same time, this study assists the government and its agencies to identify and strengthen youth participation in the agriculture sector.

Статья посвящена анализу организации работы подразделений по расследованию особо важных дел в региональных следственных органах - главных следственных управлениях и следственных управлениях Следственного комитета Российской Федерации по субъектам Российской Федерации (в тексте - региональные следственные органы СК России). Выявлены и описаны четыре особенности системы следственных органов, обусловившие необходимость выделения в составе региональных следственных органов СК России таких подразделений. Рассмотрены управленческий и криминалистический факторы, оказавшие влияние на формирование внутренней структуры подразделений по особо важным делам. Раскрыты особенности организации управления подразделениями по расследованию особо важных в зависимости от категории регионального следственного органа (главное следственное управление или следственное управление) и границ его юрисдикции (территория одного или нескольких субъектов Российской Федерации). Охарактеризованы основные подходы к организации процессуального контроля за деятельностью следователей, входящих в штат подразделений по расследованию особо важных дел. Сделан общий вывод об отсутствии в настоящее время универсальной модели организационного построения подразделений по расследованию особо важных дел, управления ими и процессуального контроля за деятельностью следователей этих подразделений в региональных следственных органах СК России, необходимости учета специфики региона и мониторинга эффективности их деятельности. The article is devoted to the analysis of the organization of the work of units investigating particularly important cases in regional investigative bodies - the main investigative departments and investigative departments of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the subjects of the Russian Federation (the regional investigative bodies of the IC of Russia). Four features of the system of investigative bodies have been identified and described, which necessitated the allocation of such units as part of the regional investigative bodies of the IC of Russia. The managerial and criminalistics factors that influenced the formation of the internal structure of divisions on particularly important cases are considered. The features of the organization of the management of the investigation units of particularly important ones, depending on the category of the regional investigative body (the main investigative department or the investigative department) and the boundaries of its jurisdiction (the territory of one or more subjects of the Russian Federation), are disclosed. The main approaches to the organization of procedural control over the activities of investigators who are part of the staff of units for the investigation of particularly important cases are described. The general conclusion is made that there is currently no universal model of organizational structure of units for the investigation of particularly important cases, their management and procedural control over the activities of the investigators of these units in the regional investigative bodies of the IC of Russia, the need to take into account the specifics of the region and monitor the effectiveness of their activities.

Full textAbstract:
The event of a crime, its preparation, as well as the concealment of traces of the committed act take place in specific conditions of place, time and other factors. These conditions affect the criminal act in different ways, develop independently or at the will of the participants in the crime, and mainly characterize a certain external environment, other factors of objective reality. Investigation of crimes is one of the most important tasks facing law enforcements. In a forensic analysis of a crime during the investigation, traces that make up elements of the external environment and other factors can be identified and studied. The analysis allows you to collect forensic information about the situation that arose at the time of the crime. A correct assessment of the situation in the commission of a crime will allow to put forward versions, plan investigative actions and operational-search measures. In turn, forensic versions are the basis for planning a crime investigation. Key words: crime, setting of the crime, investigation, investigative version

The research discusses the specifics of receiving evidence in the criminal procedure of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The authors of the article analyze the criminal procedure legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan related to receiving evidence during the pre-trial investigation of a criminal case. Having conducted a scientific analysis, they have determined the main features of receiving evidence in the criminal procedure. The study has revealed the main types of evidence and provided their characteristics. The authors have considered the procedural order of investigative actions that are based on receiving evidence (interrogation, face-to-face confrontation, presentation for identification, evidence verification and clarification at the scene, investigative experiment). According to the study results, the authors have concluded that the effectiveness of receiving evidence during the pre-trial investigation of a criminal case consists of many objective and subjective factors but the main ones are strict adherence to the corresponding law and professional skills of the official investigating the crime in question.

Full textAbstract:
Past studies of crime clearance rates have largely ignored the role of investigators in the process. This omission is important because criminal investigation is essential to clearing crimes, particularly those in which offenders are not readily identifiable. Using data from 570 law enforcement agencies spanning a 13-year period from 2000 to 2012, this study developed group-based trajectories of violent and property crime clearance rates (an approach not taken in previous clearance rate research), then modeled group membership with two measures of investigative spending and one of the proportion of investigators in sampled agencies (“investigative resources”), while controlling for factors such as workload and crime type. Results from a series of multinomial regression models suggest investigative resources play only a marginal role in crime clearance trajectories. This finding is consistent with early detective research, including the classic RAND criminal investigative process study.

The article analyzes investigative journalism in Lithuania in 2015–2020 to determine the particularity of changes in investigative journalism. Until then, only one research on investigative journalism was conducted in Lithuania, indicating that in 2015 there was no investigative journalism as a type of media in Lithuania. Although, investigative journalism is a public control tool aimed at exposing corruption and possible criminal activity.
And in 2015, the first research department was established in Lithuania as part of the structure of the media. The work aims to find out how investigative journalism has changed in Lithuania during the last years 2015-2020 and to single out the essential factors that would allow to evaluate the development of investigative journalism. The article presents the author‘s model of investigative journalism and the peculiarities of the change of investigative journalism in Lithuania. It has been established that the situation of investigative journalism in Lithuania is improving, however, compared to the media systems of Western countries, it remains underdeveloped. The perception of experts on investigative journalism is revealed, the reasons for the formation of structural structures of investigative journalism, Lithuania‘s role in international investigative journalism organizations, representatives of investigative journalism are singled out and their research is carried out, research topics, areas, applied research methods

Full textAbstract:
Interviews are an important part of investigations, as the information obtained from interviewees generates leads and evidence. However, for several psychological reasons, even cooperative victims and witnesses do not spontaneously report all the information they know, and their accounts may incorporate errors. Furthermore, suspects often deliberately withhold information or may attempt to mislead the interviewer. First, known psychological factors promote complete and accurate reports by cooperative witnesses and victims. Such factors relate to the social dynamics between the witness and interviewer (e.g., developing rapport), the interviewee’s and the interviewer’s cognitive processes, and communication between the witness and interviewer. Empirical research examines interviewing techniques that incorporate these interviewing principles. Second, some suspects may be reluctant to volunteer information. Typically, two interview styles encourage suspects to talk: An information-gathering style seeks to establish rapport with interviewees and uses open-ended exploratory questions to elicit information and establish guilt. An accusatorial style uses closed-ended confirmatory questions to elicit confessions. The former approach performs better at eliciting accurate information and true confessions. In any interview, the ability to detect truth from deceit is important. Many lie detection techniques are based on listening to speech or observing behavior, but only some discriminate between truth and deceit.

Full textAbstract:
The analysis of deception in investigative activities represents a process taking place in the domains of verbal, written and nonverbal communication through the presence of indicators that necessitates both fusion and conjugated interpretation. These indicators are not proof of deception; however, they mark the existence of inadvertencies that require further exploration. Additionally, bio-psychological and social traits of persons engaged in the investigation, and cultural factors, all corroborated with the limits of analytical techniques, contribute to underlining the complexity of the investigation. The acknowledgement of these limitations allows one to diminish subjectivity, but not to fully eradicate it.

PurposeThis paper addresses the clearance of aggravated assaults (AAs). Specifically, the authors consider variations in these clearances over time for large agencies and test which crime, investigation and agency factors are associated with the likelihood of clearance by arrest or exceptional means. In doing this work, they seek to extend the understanding of how police can improve their investigations and ability to solve serious offenses.Design/methodology/approachUsing case, investigative and organizational data collected from seven large police departments selected on the basis of their trajectory of index crime clearances, and measures of case characteristics, investigative effort and organizational best practices, this paper uses descriptive and inferential statistics to analyze AA investigations and case clearance.FindingsKey findings include the following: trajectories of AA clearance vary across large agencies and covary with a measure of organizational best practices, and the relationship between investigative effort and case clearance can depend on organizational practices. The authors find that measures of investigative effort are either not related to case clearance or there is a negative association.Research limitations/implicationsNow that police researchers have a better understanding of AAs and their investigations, they need to test how this knowledge can be used to improve the quality of police investigations. Tests, preferably multi-agency randomized control trials, of new investigative strategies and organizational practices are needed.Originality/valueThis research is original in that it uses a multi-agency sample and crime, investigation and organizational measures to understand AA clearance.

Full textAbstract:
On the basis of generalization of materials of criminal cases and research papers, typological characteristics of the victims, determined by the typical place, time, environment and traces of murders committed in conditions of unobviousness, and typological characteristics of identity of the murderer are provided. It is emphasized that these elements have an important place in the structure of criminalistics characteristics of these crimes because the investigation always starts with their establishment. It is underlined that the elements that are studied in the article provide original information about the crime. On the basis of research and data obtained from the generalization of criminal cases of unsolved murders, probabilistic, statistical and correlation connections between the elements of the forensic characterization of unsolved murders of previous years have been established and standard versions have been proposed based on them, primarily on the identity of murderers. Such versions serve as a kind of guide for investigators in organizing the investigation of a specific act of intentional deprivation of human life, committed in conditions of obscurity. This makes it possible to significantly narrow the scope of the search for persons involved in the crime, and increase the probability of its disclosure. The issue of investigating unsolved crimes recently has been the subject of attention in the works of many scholars. But these studies covered general issues specific to the investigation of all types of unsolved crimes. At the same time, there have been no in-depth studies of the problematic issues of the investigation of unsolved murders in recent years. The analysis of investigative practice shows that there are a number of specific factors for criminal cases of unsolved murders, which are related to the peculiarities of the forensic characterization of these crimes, as well as to mistakes made during the initial investigative actions and investigative measures. In the article the author tries to determine the methodological features of establishing the place, time, situation and traces of murders committed in conditions of obscurity with the subsequent implementation of the results in the investigative practice of law enforcement agencies.

Legal Concept, no. 2 (July 2021): 65–73. http://dx.doi.org/10.15688/lc.jvolsu.2021.2.9.
Full textAbstract:
Introduction: the issues of interaction of the investigator, as the central figure in the process of investigating crimes of extremism, continue to be the object of attention of scientists and practitioners. And this is not surprising, because the state of interaction of the investigator with the body of inquiry, the representatives of other services and departments, first of all, the law enforcement agencies directly depends on the speed of solving and the completeness of the investigation of each committed extremist crime, and this, in turn, affects the prestige of law enforcement agencies among the population and, as a result, the level of criminogenic situation. Despite the large number of recommendations available in the legal and specialized literature aimed at improving certain aspects of this type of activity of the person conducting the investigation, the dynamically developing criminal procedure legislation, as well as actively changing the operational-search and investigative practice, provide new food for analyzing the current state of interaction, in order to identify those newly emerging factors that negatively affect the organization and state of interaction of the main subjects of the investigation and which, ultimately, have a negative impact on the course and results of the investigation. In this regard, the authors aim to highlight some problematic issues that arise in the course of organizing and maintaining the proper level of interaction between the investigative body and other subjects of the investigation to ensure the prompt and comprehensive establishment of all the circumstances to be proved. Tasks: to describe the areas of interaction between the investigator and the body of inquiry during the investigation of crimes in cases of extremism; to give recommendations aimed at overcoming these problems. Methods: the methodological framework for the study is a set of methods of scientific knowledge, among which the main ones are the methods of information processing and logical analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction and generalization. Results: the authors’ point of view on the problems associated with the organization of interaction between the investigator and employees of other services and departments of the law enforcement agencies in order to uncover and investigate crimes of extremism, as well as the proposed ways to solve them, based on the analysis of modern operational and investigative practice, trends in the development of the current criminal procedure legislation make it possible to use them in the practical activities of the authorized law enforcement officials in their practical activities aimed at solving and investigating crimes. Conclusions: as a result of the study, the existing problems determined by the changes in the criminal procedure legislation and operational and investigative practice are identified, and the ways to overcome them are proposed in order to inform students in the field of training “Jurisprudence”, teachers of law schools, as well as practitioners in order to better understand the specifics of the investigation of crimes of this category.

Full textAbstract:
A distinctive feature of modern crimes is its qualitative complication and rapid development of hightech crimes characterized by the widespread use of the latest information technologies. As there is quite a low response rate in adapting the norms of law and judicial and investigative practice to new types of crimes, criminalistic theory and practice lag behind the ongoing changes. One of the aspects of this lag is the lack of development of private forensic methods for investigating high-tech crimes. The paper shows that the difficulties in the formation of such methods primarily result from negative factors related to the specifics of its sources. The shortcomings of the system regulation of public relations in the field of countering high-tech crime, contradictions and inconsistencies in the application of criminal and criminal procedure legislation are among such factors for the legal norms source. The difficulties in using scientific knowledge are associated with their weak formation, which is natural for new types of crimes. Low representativeness of empirical data presented by insufficiently developed forensic investigative practice plays a negative role, which significantly complicates the generalization of the experience of investigations. The paper proves that a promising approach to overcoming problems in building a private method for investigating new types of crimes is the development of a predictive method that reflects the most likely features of the relevant crimes, trends in their development and patterns of their investigation. The author proposes and substantiates some principles of creating such a method, including the expansion of the role of the general criminalistic methodology, the use of the provisions of private methods developed for close groups of crimes, as well as the extrapolation of empirical data on crimes with similar criminalistic characteristics to a new group of crimes. It is shown that in conditions of insufficient representativeness of forensic investigative practice, the involvement of the method of expert assessments is of particular importance.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Motivation has long been seen as a deciding factor in the learning of a foreign language and in ensuring success for the learners. As a corollary to this, demotivation adversely affects learning success and negatively influences learning outcomes. The present study examines the factors that negatively affect Saudi EFL learners. Methods: The study subjects are 45 male and 35 female learners, and the data were collected using a 50-item questionnaire. The factors under study are course instructor, course-content and facilities, attitude towards EFL and socio-cultural factors. Data have been analyzed using the SPSS software. Results: Results show that the factors around socio-cultural, and course instructor (M=4.06, 3.67) respectively were the most influential in aggravating the student's demotivation. Furthermore, experience of failure is at play as a moderate factor (M=2.84) whereas the course content and facilities and attitude towards EFL factors, (M=2.57; M=1.83) are perceived as less influential factors in demotivating the EFL students. Findings also show a marginal non-significant difference between male and female participants regarding perceptions of the demotivating factors (males = 5.30, females= 5.70); the difference is not significant, P=, .834. Conclusions: It is presumed that the findings of this study might be helpful for EFL learners and instructors of Saudi Arabia in devising coping strategies to overcome demotivation.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explore investigative decision-making processes in the context of major crimes as experienced by the law enforcement agents.Design/methodology/approachEpisodic interviews were conducted with six agents from medium-sized police forces in the UK. Following the framework of naturalistic inquiry, qualitative content analysis took place with the assistance of Atlas.ti software. To ensure the validity of findings, the within method triangulation was preferred, by additionally analysing the interview transcripts with Alceste.FindingsFindings from this study revealed a variety of internal factors at play, shaping the decision-making course into an act of balancing various desired goals. Detectives appear to assess a situation based on their experiences confirming that the naturalistic decision-making model may assist in understanding investigative decision-making.Research limitations/implicationsDue to the busy schedule of law enforcement agents the number of participants was limited and availability difficult; therefore, this study can be thought of as a pilot study that will inspire researchers to use the same method for in-depth understanding of investigative decision-making.Practical implicationsResults captured the ill-defined goals in the police environment and provided ways of decreasing their impact on investigative decision-making thus should help detectives to understand their decision-making limitations and strengths.Social implicationsThis project will enhance the psychological understanding of investigative decision-making.Originality/valueThis project assists in understanding the psychological aspect of investigative decision-making during police duty and provides the opportunity to law enforcement agents to re-evaluate situations in order to improve the investigative decision-making process; while adds to existing literature.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Reproducible and reliable scientific investigation depends on the identification and consideration of various intrinsic and extrinsic factors that may affect the model system used. The impact of these factors must be managed during all phases of a study: planning, execution, and reporting. The value of in vivo (animal) research has come under increasing scrutiny over the past decade because of multiple reports documenting poor translatability to human studies. These failures have been attributed to various causes, including poor study design and execution as well as deficiencies in reporting. It is important to recognize that achieving reproducible and reliable preclinical research results is a joint responsibility that requires a partnership between the investigative team and the animal care and use program staff. The myriad of intrinsic factors, such as species, strain/substrain, age, sex, physiologic and health status, and extrinsic factors, including temperature, humidity, lighting, housing system, and diet, need to be recognized and managed during study planning and execution, as they can influence animal physiology and biological response. Of equal importance is the need to document and report these details. The ARRIVE and PREPARE guidelines were developed by concerned scientists, veterinarians, statisticians, journal editors, and funding agencies to assist investigative teams and scientific journals manage and report on intrinsic and extrinsic factors to improve reproducibility and reliability. This issue of the ILAR Journal will focus on the various extrinsic factors that have been recognized to confound animal research.

PurposeDetective work is a mainstay of modern law enforcement, but its effectiveness has been much less evaluated than patrol work. To explore what is known about effective investigative practices and to identify evidence gaps, the authors assess the current state of empirical research on investigations.Design/methodology/approachThe authors assess the empirical research about the effectiveness of criminal investigations and detective work in resolving cases and improving clearance rates.FindingsThe authors’ analysis of the literature produced 80 studies that focus on seven categories of investigations research, which include the impact that case and situational factors, demographic and neighborhood dynamics, organizational policies and practices, investigative effort, technology, patrol officers and community members have on case resolution. The authors’ assessment shows that evaluation research examining the effectiveness of various investigative activities is rare. However, the broader empirical literature indicates that a combination of organizational policies, investigative effort and certain technologies can be promising in improving investigative outcomes even in cases deemed less solvable.Research limitations/implicationsFrom an evidence-based perspective, this review emphasizes the need for greater transparency, evaluation and accountability of investigative activities given the resources and importance afforded to criminal investigations.Originality/valueThis review is currently the most up-to-date review of the state of the research on what is known about effective investigative practices.

Full textAbstract:
The article highlights the peculiarities of judicial interrogation, the complexity of which is determined by the psychological tension of a vocal and open competitive process, a dynamic, collective study of the testimony of the interrogated persons. The tactics of judicial interrogation is considered as a system of the most rational and effective measures for the organization and conduct of interrogation by its subjects. At the same time, the presiding officer's tactics include techniques and methods of preparing for the interrogation, managing its conduct, evaluating and using the obtained results.
Factors determining the specificity of judicial interrogation include: 1) publicity of the trial; 2) dynamism of the forensic investigation; 3) awareness of the parties regarding the essential elements of the indictment and available evidence; 4) a greater remoteness in time of the investigated event compared to investigative interrogation.
The features of judicial interrogation considered in the article significantly distinguish it from interrogation at a pre-trial investigation, which requires the development of original techniques used during interrogation in a court session, because not all tactical techniques developed by criminology for the needs of pre-trial investigation are suitable for use in court proceedings. At the same time, there are some analogies between judicial and investigative interrogation, the presence of which determines the need to use a complex approach when creating means of tactical and forensic support for judicial interrogation, which involves taking into account the differences between interrogations at pre-trial investigation and in court, as well as the use of what has been developed by forensic science and verified by investigative practice of the tactical arsenal of investigative interrogation, the problems of which are studied more deeply, and the tactical means are developed in more detail and, with creative thinking, can be adapted to the situation of the trial.

Tujuan penelitian menganalisis efektivitas penyidikan tindak pidana korupsi di bidang pengadaan barang dan jasa oleh Polres Bulukumba. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian hukum empiris, yakni penelitian yang dilakukan langsung di lapangan. Data yang diperoleh baik primer maupun sekunder dianalisis baik secara deduktif maupun induktif kemudian disajikan secara deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Efektivtas Penyidikan tindak pidana korupsi di bidang pengadaan barang dan jasa oleh Polres Bulukumba adalah melalui upaya penyidikan melalui teknik pengembangan kasus dengan memanfaatkan saksi pelapor dan saksi pelaku serta teknik audit investigatif sebagai metode pencarian dan pengumpulan data, informasi dan temuan lainnya untuk mengetahui kebenaran atau bahkan kesalahan sebuah fakta dengan berkoordinasi dengan BPK/BPKP. Faktor yang menghambat dalam penyidikan tindak pidana korupsi di bidang pengadaan barang dan Jasa adalah keterbatasan jumlah sumber daya manusia pada Penyidik Polri yang melakukan kegiatan Penyelidikan dan Penyidikan serta keterbatasan sumber dana/anggaran penanganan perkara dalam kegiatan penyidikan.
The research objective was to analyze the effectiveness of the investigation of corruption in the procurement of goods and services by the Bulukumba Police. This research is an empirical legal research, which is research conducted directly in the field. The data obtained both primary and secondary were analyzed both deductively and inductively then presented descriptively. The results show that the effectiveness of investigating corruption in the procurement of goods and services by the Bulukumba Police is through investigative efforts through case development techniques using reporting witnesses and perpetrator witnesses and investigative audit techniques as a method of searching and collecting data, information and other findings to determine truth or even error of a fact in coordination with the BPK / BPKP. Factors that hinder the investigation of criminal acts of corruption in the field of goods and services procurement are the limited number of human resources for Polri Investigators who carry out Investigation and Investigation activities as well as limited funding sources / budget for case handling in investigation activities.

This study looks at how investigative journalists practice gatekeeping in the context of China. By combining with the hierarchical model of influence (Shoemaker, 1991; Shoemaker & Reese, 2014), this study revisits the relationship between influential factors from the aspects of politics, markets, and organizations, which are across all the levels. Based on the interviews with 25 investigative journalists in Beijing, this research suggests that influential factors do not always have a strong hierarchical relation between each other regarding what sort of information could turn out to be news. This situation is because journalists share varied perceptions about what influential factor can convert into a particular constraint.

The majority of research on investigative interviewing has been on police attempting to solve a crime by obtaining a confession or gathering information, and comparatively fewer studies have examined interviewing at points “downstream” in the process, such as in the courts or correctional system. Furthermore, the focus of the research has been to measure the variable techniques or questioning strategies that produce confessions or information at the expense of analyzing factors related to the interview itself. Thus, we analyzed a sample of 50 corrections-based interviews for “dynamic” interviewing methods and interviewee responses that were measured at three points throughout the interview, and we measured 10 “static” interview factors. In the final multilevel model, we found that productive questioning methods increased a component score that combined interviewee cooperation, engagement, and forthcomingness, the several measures of accusatorial interrogation methods decreased the outcome measure, and the case-level variable of interviewee-initiated interviews increased it.

Full textAbstract:
Cotton is an important commodity to improve economic development of rural dwellers and the economy of Pakistan. It contributes 5.2 percent in value addition to the agriculture sector and more than 50 percent share of the total exports of the country. But the cotton production has witnessed a huge decline of 20 percent from 13.96 million bales to 9.86 million bales over the last five years from 2014-18, resulting in a large loss to the GDP of the country. This rapid shifting of cotton towards sugarcane and other crops in core cotton areas of Punjab has severely damaged the large textile industry of Pakistan. Therefore, the present study was planned to investigate the factors behind shifting of cotton crop in the purposively selected district Rahim Yar Khan as it was the leading cotton producing district in the Punjab and had been hit hard by this paradigm shift. The population of study was comprised of all those farmers who have been completely or partially shifted from cotton to sugarcane crop. Multistage sampling technique was adopted to select the sample size. A baseline survey was conducted to prepare a list of farmers who had been shifted from cotton to sugarcane production. A well-prepared interview schedule was administered for data collection in this study. It was revealed that the cost of certified cotton seed and fertilizers were the major economic factors; adulteration of pesticides and unavailability of certified seed were the production factors; poor quality of water and extreme heat waves were the natural factors; market fluctuation and middleman monopoly were the marketing factors and expansion of sugar industry and unchecked involvement of middleman were the major policy factors behind the paradigm shift of cotton crop as per the responses obtained from the respondents

Full textAbstract:
This paper focuses on factors that influence the degree of involvement in foreign markets. Using survey method, the research data was obtained from 112 usable responses from a sample of 500 UK companies which operate in at least two other countries. This represents a usable response rate of 22.4%, and consistent with similar research. The variables are grouped in terms of firm context (competition, organisation structure, competitive advantages, degree of standardisation) and host country context (economic development, culture differences, regulation, political risk). Regression models are used to test the relationship between the independent variables and the degree of involvement. Findings strongly indicate a positive relationship between the degree of foreign market involvement and the level of competition and the degree of foreign market involvement and competitive advantage. Findings weakly support the hypothesis of a positive relationship between the degree of foreign market involvement and economic development. There is weaker evidence to show a negative relationship between the degree of foreign market involvement and the cultural dimensions of individualism and power distance as proposed by Hofstede.

Full textAbstract:
The research work was aimed at developing the criteria for identifying candidates' professional fitness for operational services of law enforcement. The sample comprised of 114 internal affairs officers (with 2 or more years of service). Research methods: standardized method of personality research, psychophysiological techniques; in order to evaluate an operational officer's professional effectiveness on the basis of a factor analysis of 55 behavioral qualities of an operative noted by immediate supervisors, the professional profile of the employee including the following factors was developed: ‘professional level’, ‘proneness to conflict’, ‘physical development’, ‘availability’, ‘self-control’, and ‘intelligence’. The primary goal was to identify the ‘professional level’ factor using psychodiagnostic parameters. This task was accomplished through multiple linear regression analysis. With the help of adjacency matrix of expert evaluation and predictive index of regression, the identification accuracy was assessed. It turned out to be high when identifying the high expert evaluation through testing. The model developed is only intended for selecting the best operational officers.
